Well, I think most people were banking on this being the license, so it's not a huge surprise. A good choice and hopefully they'll do a great job with it. I'm a big fan of the manga but compression of the material in the anime threw me a bit.
I'll wait to see who is cast in what roles before I totally jump for joy. (Barring any serious miscasting, I'll probably be picking this one up.) |

Yes, yes, YES!  It's about freakin' time!! I'm so happy that FUNi got it; they'll handle this series well, given the quality of their most recent releases.
I see Claymore possibly airing on IFC in future, if not [adult swim].
EDIT: That video announcement was pretty funny. |

I was expecting Viz to get Claymore also, but FUNi is so much better. This is a pretty major acquisition though. Claymore was quite popular amongst the fansub crowd last year, and the manga rocks. |

| Not much of a surprise, but a good pickup because it will be really popular I think. Maybe this is once of those shows I'd actually watch dubbed, because the kid that follows Claire around made me drop the show. Every time he opened his mouth I wanted to shoot myself. That and the fact I wasn't really interested in it, not my type of show. |

| Nice to know, that not everything that is somewhat popular gets licensed by Viz. |

Right. IFC is the more logical choice since they wouldn't necessarily have to edit anything (unlike [adult swim]). We'll have to see what happens.

 Why do you say that? |

| I wanted somone else to get the license for this series. I wasn't all that impressed with the last license Funimation had (BECK: Mongolian CHop Squad). I'm going to stick with the fansub on this one. |
